No matter what year of college you’re in, sometimes you just need a break from the campus scene. Returning home for a weekend can feel like returning to an entirely different life as you go back to your old town, family and hometown friends. Here a few things we seem to always forget but realize yet again every single time we visit home for the weekend.
1. There’s something so comforting about being in your childhood bed again
2. Home-cooked meals have been greatly missed
Because Ramen noodles and junk food are becoming a pretty bad diet at this point.
3. It feels really weird to have to drive everywhere instead of walking
4. Weekend nights are pretty boring when there’s nowhere to party
5. You’ve missed being able to see your parents in person
6. But you’re having serious FOMO seeing all the snaps from your friends still at school
7. Running into people from your high school is not fun anymore
8. It’s really annoying to have to tell your parents everywhere you’re going
Nothing stays private when you’re at home with your parents watching your every move.
9. Although you love your family, living with friends is so much easier sometimes
10. Not being around college-aged people 24/7 feels very wrong
Wait, adults and children still exist?
